| My One Monthly Goal for November has been finished for a couple weeks. I hand quilted Palmateer Point with a clamshell design. It went pretty fast! |
 |
| After reading this post at Completely Cauchy (warning--some of her posts are not for the faint of heart!), I'm embracing my quilt stitches and will not call them big stitches or utility stitches--they are what they are. The gold binding was just for fun. And since I finished my goal so early, I was able to get one new project squeezed in... |
 |
| ...a cute table runner from Cotton Tales called Autumn Gatherings. I picked up the kit at our guild "garage sale" this summer and have had it on my cutting table in hopes of getting it done for this fall. I'm going to go ahead and get it quilted so it's ready for next year---lol! |

| Today I'm chilling out in front of the television and doing some Slow Sunday Stitching: basting hexies. I'm totally wrapped up in the Weeds marathon on Showtime and haven't accomplished a thing all weekend. Good thing today is the last day! Linking with Elm Street Quilts HERE and Kathy's Quilts HERE |
Love your Palmateer Point...and the advice from your fried. Sweet little placemat, too
ReplyDeleteGood purchase with the wool bird and flowers piece. Was it already started or did you get it to the point it is now?
ReplyDeleteYour Palmateer Point is a lovely finish...whatever you call your stitchings, your handquilting looks just right to me :-) Cute table runner.
ReplyDeleteYour Palmateer Point turned out really nice. I love your wool piece. Hugs
ReplyDeleteNice finish and a lovely wool project to work on. Hand stitching is a great way to relax after a busy weekend.
ReplyDeletecongrats on the beautiful finish and that placemat is a nice project / plenty of time, too! : )
ReplyDeleteThe Autumn wall hanging is so colorful. It just feels like fall should. I'm glad you found time to stitch it up and will finish it for next year. I didn't get my Halloween cross stitch done in time this year but I'm still working on it when I can so it will be ready for next year.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on finishing your one monthly goal, Karen. Your Palmateer Point is beautiful. Love your little label on the back, too. The colors on your table runner are so inviting.
ReplyDeleteYour Palmateer Point is lovely. I am not a tiny hand stitcher either, it is what it is :) Gorgeous applique project you scored.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and congrats on your finish.
ReplyDeletePalmateer Point....Outstanding!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you chose for Palmateer Point. I don't think of the label "big stitching" as a negative or as a comparison to other hand quilting. It seems to fit the style or intent of certain projects and the weight of the thread. I would think anyone looking at a quilt with that type of stitching would understand that. But then again, maybe not. Oh, well. The clam shell pattern looks great on your finished quilt!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilting on your pretty little quilt. So fun to start a new project... and those hexies are the perfect project for a tv marathon.
ReplyDeleteLove the clamshell quilting!
ReplyDeleteOne time I was quilting and my friend says, "oh nice big stitch!" which was fine, but I wasn't doing the big stitch!
So much handwork! Love your wool applique. I want to finish up some of my projects and start my first wool project soon.
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely projects!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing Palmateer Point!
Great finish. Well done and you do have some nice projects on the go.
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with the Palmateer Point. Now I want to make one!
